Add "active" email addresses into Dashboard
I have a list of project team members on the Dashboard. Is there a way to show email address that will create an email when "clicked on"?

Hi Royce,
Yes, with an URL shortener like https://bitly.com or https://is.gd
Enter this as the URL to be shortened: mailto:name@domain.com
- Copy the shortened URL
- right click on the cell where you want to place it in Smartsheet
- choose the Hyperlink option and paste the URL
- change the name to what you want it to show as on the dashboard.
I hope this helps you!

I assume the two shorteners can not be done in bulk without a paid account.

I'll bookmark it.
Nice work-around starting with your original concept.
This feature is one of those "'why haven't they implemented this yet?"
There's plenty of requests where I can rationalize why Smartsheet or another developer has not implemented a widely requested feature, but this is not one of them.

--Edit-- Probably has to do with Spam, but still don't quite get it.

FYI Bitly doesn't allow this anymore. Probably time to add this as a feature.
